23 Psalm for Busy People

Guideposts once published this psalm written by Toki Miyashina. I need to take note of the wise counsel. Let me share this with you.

The Lord is my Pacesetter; I shall not rush.
He makes me stop and rest for quiet intervals.
He provides me with images of stillness, which restore my serenity.
He leads me in ways of efficiency, through calmness of mind,
And His guidance is peace.
Even though I have a great many things to accomplish each day
I will not fret, for His presence is here.
His timelessness, His all-importance, will keep me in balance.
He prepares refreshment and renewal in the midst of my activity
By anointing my mind with His oils of tranquility.
My cup of joyous energy overflows.
Surely harmony and effectiveness shall be the fruits of my hours,
For I shall walk in the pace of my Lord, and dwell in His house forever.


There is a place of quiet rest, near to the heart of God. The Lord tells us, "Be still and know that I am God."
